And now for the answers …
Mostly A’s: OPAL. No doubt about it – you are brilliant, and like the opal you can be fiery at times! You are creative, and bring a flash of colour and light to your world.
Mostly B’s: TOPAZ. Optimistic, happy, and fun to be with – yet you are caring and full of empathy. You are known for your warm and sunny nature.
Mostly C’s: PEARL. You are one classy lady! You have a refined manner, and a way of smoothing over difficult situations. You are a lover of the finer things of life – music, arts, food.
Mostly D’s: AQUAMARINE. Cool, calm and collected – that’s you! You have a deep inner serenity and like to take time to reflect. You are a peace-maker. Harmony and unity is very precious to you.
Mostly E’s: DIAMOND. You have a pure heart, and real strength of character formed through adversity. You are rock solid and reliable, with a sharp intellect.
Mostly F’s: RUBY. Just as rubies are red, the colour of love, so you are full of love and vivacity, passion and power! You radiate warmth and a strong sense of vitality.
What gem did you come up with? Or if you could choose one that best represents you – which one would it be?!

Diamond – but I’m ethically opposed to diamonds so that’s a little weird….
Janet Camilleri says
We can say “created diamonds” or cubic zirconias if you prefer 🙂
Julie says
I was aquamarine. But my answers were all over the place. Only got two d. Love good mini quiz.
Janet Camilleri says
Hmm maybe I should have come up with a category for a little bit of everything!!!
Ness says
I got mostly Fs , but the ruby description doesn’t sound like me. Probably because there is no all of the above option. Especially for the dessert question!!
Raych aka Mystery Case says
Interesting, I’m like Ness mostly Fs but I don’t really think I’m a ruby.
June says
I got Aquamarine. The description was fairly accurate as I do like peace and harmony and try to avoid conflict. I’ve also been told that I handle difficult situations quite well (even if I’m shaking on the inside!). I enjoy doing short quizzes on the internet now and then so thanks for posting this one Janet. You clearly put a lot of thought and time into writing it.
Emily @ Have A Laugh On Me says
Crap I’m a bit of all of them, but more of a diamond, YEAH RIGHT! x
victoria says
how is your little cat doing !
Janet Camilleri says
LOL Victoria – check out today’s post for heaps of pics of my fur baby!
Anne@GritandGiggles says
Nice bit of morning fun. My answers were everywhere but I think I came out with pearl. I can’t say I would be described as loving the finer things in life, I’m a pretty simple person but I do love pearls.
KathyMarris says
I got Ruby which I’m happy about as I love the colour red.
Zita says
D – cool, calm and collected! that’s me!! haha
Kirsty @ My Home Truths says
You are a clever one, aren’t you Janet! I came up with ruby but I was a little bit topaz and diamond as well. Put them altogether and I think that’s close to describing me!
